Hello,

in the current Ubuntu there is an option during the installation time to encrypt the filesystem on the harddrive. When you turn on the computer, after the BIOS loading, user have to enter his password to decrypt the file system and let the OS to boot. If the password is wrong then the OS won't load.

I really liked this option in Ubuntu and I miss it very much in Trisquel. Are there any ways to being this functionality into Trisquel?

Uhm, isn't there such an option during the install?

Not, not in the Trisquel 6 graphical installer.

That option was only introduced in Ubuntu 12.10, so it didn't make it
into Trisquel 6:

Full disk encryption is offered on the non-graphical installation. If
you boot into the distro I don't think it is offered. I'm not really too
familiar with the installers though.

This is a great tutorial! I hope that in the future this option will be available in the graphical installation too.
